A programmer reflects on a lifelong bond with C

Original: The C programming language has been a constant in my life! I’m no expert, in fact, as a programmer, I’m really terrible,

A programmer is sharing a personal reflection on the C programming language, describing it as a constant in their life since teenage years. They admit to being far from an expert, even calling themselves a poor programmer, but say C was the first language they tried to learn shortly after discovering the Unix world, which left them fond of it despite their struggles.

Why now: People are discussing nostalgia for C as a first programming language and its lasting personal significance.
